Other language courses in the Espoo/Helsinki area?

I've been attending the University of Helsinki's Finnish for foreigners courses for the past couple years, I wanted to take the discussion course this semester but 1) I missed the sign-up date 2) it was on Tues/Thurs at 4.30pm which is really bad for me.

Anyone got some links/info to other langauge courses? In particular, a discussion course (five semesters of grammar is enough for me, for a while at least).

Thanks gang!!

I did a conversation course here a couple of years ago. I think there are still some running.

International Evangelical Church in Finland has also Finnish discussion courses :

You could write to the church and ask for more information.

The teachers are serious about their religion but they do not try to force their beliefs on their students.

although it is a "summer university", they appear to teach through the year, and have conversation courses

If I am correctly informed it does not cost anything to join this group.
